Iron Man 3 (2013)

The universe of superhero movies are growing and its becoming stronger and steadier by the day. Each movie comes with spectacular work of animation and stunning stunts surpassing its predecessor. This goes equally towards the promotions and ever growing expenditure for marketing years ahead of the release of the movie. Iron Man 3 was one of such movies made bigger than it actually is through promotions. But in real the movie doesn't deliver that much entertainment. But don’t get me wrong the usual CG extravaganza and the superhero flavor is very much intact. But it fails to deliver the punch through an effective story line. The reason being Iron Man is not exactly a superhero but a machine driven hero who has to abide to the laws of physics and technological advancements of the time seems a bit too overwhelming in its performance. ‘Maybe’ even a superhero cannot deliver some of the stunts in this. I know I can't be serious here but it does bother a bit.

Apart from that as mentioned earlier the sheer amount of action in the final sequence and the breathtaking amount of small details that gives energy to the scenes this movie is totally watchable from start to end. However for some reason it failed to get my full attention. This stage of the movie is a good addition to the already popular franchise but… it’s more effective in its humor than its true emotional value. Yet it ends with some big hopes in horizon for a larger and better sequence.

Iron Man 3 (2013) 2.5/5
